Toxascaris leonina (medicine) and Heads of Ayr Beach (tourism)


Toxascaris leonina (medicine)


Toxascaris leonina


An ascarid nematode of the dog that differs from Toxocara in that the larvae do not migrate through the lungs; the entire developmental cycle occurs in the gut. This parasite has been found in humans in a few instances and is a cause of visceral larva migrans in children, though less frequently implicated than is Toxocara canis.

Origin: G. Toxon, bow, + Ascaris
